"You Can Have Whatever You Like"
  by Brokenvegtable
  - This Poem is a response to the poem NO IV FOR THESE VEINS by **HOLLA**


I have nothing….everything is gone
Taken without my permission
I have been sent into remission
Forced to live through everyone else’s vision

Go ahead you can have whatever you like
Go on take everything away, you can have anything you like

Once upon a time…..I remember a time, much happier
The fairy tales told and all those bedtime stories
In which I was told, “You can be whatever you like”
“You can have whatever you like”……this is just not so

Cause in the end its all about whatever you like
Gone done and taken everything from my life

What’s left when I have been stripped of my soul
Cut so deep with the knife of life, bled so profusely, no bandage needed
I have an open wound that just won’t heal
It cries more then just my empty tears, no feeling anymore, I fear….to live

Go ahead do whatever you like
Anything at all is alright, I won’t fight

My mind is so confused, the chance at life was given….no life was returned
So I filled myself up just to be emptied out
Through all the taunts and being so maliciously teased
I only begged please……and my plea was overturned…..I was not freed

Have nothing left to give…..nothing left to have….nothing at all
You have everything that you want……everything I am….is now everything you are

Even as I look into the shadow of what was
I see nothing I like…..better to be a nothing then a horrid something
Even my pain wants nothing to do with me
As I have not felt myself in a very long time……could it be I am no longer alive

Everything is nothing to me
I am not worth taking……cause no one wants what’s left

On the outside I appear to be normal……just another human being
Only if those looking from the outside in could see
Just how empty I have become…..even my words are on loan from someone else
Reduced to what will eventually become……the end

Left with nothing….no substance……no chance
Taken from me, everything all at once……left for dead

Lost those I loved…..and who loved me…..if I could believe
What was real and what was fake……it’s all so blurry to me
When I have no answer for any questions……no one was ever listening
As if I had never existed to begin with……..why would I hold on…..to nothing

Take me away…..aren’t I something you want
Stripped, stolen, defiled, violated, abused, wasted, invisible, forgotten, abandoned

With no more emotion……I can not show you what has happened
If I could would you even believe me…..I bet not
To watch and say “Now there goes a hopeless person”
Would you say that knowing what has happened……I guess maybe so

I have given up……with nothing left to show
I will die…..alone…..slow…..unknown…….as you come for the rest


Taken me away from me
Cause I let you have anything and everything you like……….
